Human 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isoforms (AKR1C1-AKR1C4) of the aldo-keto reductase superfamily: functional plasticity and tissue distribution reveals roles in the inactivation and formation of male and female sex hormones
Open accessAbstract
The kinetic parameters, steroid substrate specificity and identities of reaction products were determined for four homogeneous recombinant human 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3α-HSD) isoforms of the aldo-keto reductase (AKR) superfamily. The enzymes correspond to type 1 3α-HSD (AKR1C4), type 2 3α(17β)-HSD (AKR1C3), type 3 3α-HSD (AKR1C2) and 20α(3α)-HSD (AKR1C1), and share at least 84% amino acid sequence identity. All enzymes acted as NAD(P)(H)-dependent 3-, 17- and 20-ketosteroid reductases and as 3α-, 17β- and 20α-hydroxysteroid oxidases. The functional plasticity of these isoforms highlights their ability to modulate the levels of active androgens, oestrogens and progestins. Salient features were that AKR1C4 was the most catalytically efficient, with kcat/Km values for substrates that exceeded those obtained with other isoforms by 10–30-fold. In the reduction direction, all isoforms inactivated 5α-dihydrotestosterone (17β-hydroxy-5α-androstan-3-one; 5α-DHT) to yield 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol (3α-androstanediol). However, only AKR1C3 reduced ∆4-androstene-3,17-dione to produce significant amounts of testosterone. All isoforms reduced oestrone to 17β-oestradiol, and progesterone to 20α-hydroxy-pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione (20α-hydroxyprogesterone). In the oxidation direction, only AKR1C2 converted 3α-androstanediol to the active hormone 5α-DHT. AKR1C3 and AKR1C4 oxidized testosterone to ∆4-androstene-3,17-dione. All isoforms oxidized 17β-oestradiol to oestrone, and 20α-hydroxy…

“17HSD5 may account for much of the extratesticular, peripheral conversion of androstenedione to testosterone, although its catalytic efficiency as a 17HSD is poor (528) compared with its 20␣HSD activity with progesterone and DOC (520) or its prostaglandin dehydrogenase activity, reducing prostaglandin H 2 to prostaglandin F 2␣ (529).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
